My First 5K

OK, I know it has been awhile since I posted anything, but I have been "training" for my first 5K.

My friend Jill helped me along the way. She is an avid runner and participates in many events during the year.

Here we are........ look at all these crazy people who get up early on a Saturday morning, pay the regestration fee, just to run 3.1 miles.....Now I'm one of these crazy people.

And we are OFF...........A long way to go.........



I made it!!! I know the timer says 18:47, but it was reset for the men, they started 30 minutes after the women, so I made it just under 49 minutes.

In GOD We Still Trust

The song you are about to listen to is from a Las Vegas Diamond Rio concert. They received an immediate resounding standing ovation, and continue to do so every time they perform it! Sadly, major radio stations wouldn't play it because it was considered 'politically incorrect'. Consequently, the song was never released to the public. So America , see what you think. If this offering speaks to your heart and you feel you want to share it with friends and loved ones, please do.

I FINALLY DID IT

Yes, 20+ years after graduating from high school, I finally got my BS degree. To think that you need a degree for this, I have been practicing the art of BS for all this time, and I'm now official!!!! LOL

New Calling

Well, I have just been called to be the seminary teacher for the 2009-2010 school year........What were they thinking???? Not sure yet how I feel about this, but one thing is for sure, I will defiantly learn more then the students!!!!!

Spring Break Fun

We went to Myrtle Beach SC for Spring Break.... We sure did have fun!!!!

Here is a FUN Idea

The first five people to respond to this post will get something from me!
My choice.
For you.
Handmade.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1- I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
2- What I create will be just for you.
3- It'll be done this year.
4- You have no clue what it's going to be (nor do I at this point).
The catch is that you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.
The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they want to receive a homemade gift from me will indeed receive one.
Be sure to post a picture of what you win when you get it!!!

Now This is a SNOW DAY

The school is closed today for a SNOW day. This is what a snow day is, not the pitiful amount of snow that we got on Jan 20th.

New Braces

Well, it was time for Tyler to get braces. Doesn't he look good?!?
There goes our income tax refund!!! Boy they are not cheap!$$$!!

Family Fun

It was time for a new picture on my BLOG, so here are some pictures from our trip to Nevada in November

Together for Ever

Last Friday January 23, 2009 we were sealed in the Columbia South Carolina Temple for time and all eternity.

This means that we are going to be together forever and ever, and ever.......oh my!!!

Snow in North Carolina

We missed the one day of snow that falls in NC last year (we went to AZ to visit) but we were here this year!!! Not much snow, but it was enough to close the schools. Kids were happy!!
